Just picked up a fiver. Anyone try these yet? (And thanks in advance for the warnings about, well, you know...)

Haven't tried 'em, but I sure hope the cigar makers get past this SA 'fad' soon.

SA?

Dan Andreas wrapper?

that's what I heard

What's wrong with SA I like them, there are a lot out there though now.

My least favorite wrapper

It will fade just like everything hits the peak once everyone is doing it then fades away and on to the next trend.

Illusione pactum Dòminus vobìscum.

Et **** spirtu tuo.

Amen.

Now we will pass the plate and remember St Spectre likes a cheerful giver.

8-[ 😰 🙏

Not sure the "SA" is a fad. Been smoking SA wrapped cigars for years......

Try one yet, fiddler?

Letting them sit for a week or so, though they look & smell tremendous. I'll post when I do.

Pactum?......Damn near killed'um! 🍺

Finally fired one up while celebrating Christmas with my daughter & son-in-law yesterday. Very well constructed (natch, it's an Illusione, after all), smoked slowly & evenly. I got notes of plum and milk chocolate, a little bit peppery at the outset but not too much, and maybe some damp grass or hay up front on the cold draw. I do like the press on it, and it sits well in the hand. For the price, about $8.50, it's a decent value. Something tells me a little rest will make it even better, and I'm really glad I picked these up.

maybe see if they get better when smoked anywhere but Southie.

^ Dot, actually.

I think I did know that, now that you mention it.

I'll take "Cigar lines that sound like euphemisms for suppository" for $1600 please, Alex.
